Abstract

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become one of the main imaging techniques for the diagnosis and prognostic stratification of the different cardiovascular diseases. Proof of this is the growing interest in training in this imaging technique which was evident in the past EuroCMR 2019 where 1379 specialists (26.5% more than in the previous edition) met in Lido (Venice) to discuss the latest scientific advances in the CMR field. In this review, we will discuss the most recent research presented during this congress that aroused maximum interest.

Keywords: arrhythmia and congenital heart disease; cardiomyopathy; cardiovascular magnetic resonance; ischaemic heart disease; valvular disease; vascular disease.
